Hamas October 7 massacre a 'reaction to Israeli oppression' - UN official

[1LoverofGod]

UN Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian territories, Francesca Albanese, expressed outrage on Saturday after French President Emmanuel Macron referred to the October 7 massacre as "the largest antisemitic massacre of our century," insisting that the massacre of 1,200 Israelis was simply a "response to Israel's oppression."

"The 'greatest antisemitic massacre of our century'? No, Mr. @EmmanuelMacron. The victims of 7/10 were not killed because of their Judaism, but in response to Israel's oppression. France & the international community did nothing to prevent it. My respects to the victims," wrote Albanese on X.

The French Foreign Ministry condemned Albanese's comments, replying on X that "the October 7 massacre is the largest antisemitic massacre of the 21st century. Disputing it is an error. Seeming to justify it, by including the name of the United Nations, is a disgrace."

"These comments are all the more scandalous since the fight against antisemitism and all forms of racism are at the heart of the founding of the UN," added the French Foreign Ministry.
